High in the sky, mountains and rivers rushed past Lu Xuan's feet.
At this time he was sitting on a huge black eagle.
The giant eagle's body is three to four feet long, its wings are spread out over ten feet, and its wings have dark black feathers like sword blades. It is extremely fast.
The second-grade demon beast Iron Feathered Eagle was raised by the Wang family. Lu Xuan once saw a third-grade iron-feathered eagle in the market, which was more than twice as big as this one.
There is a spiritual shield around the Iron Feathered Eagle, blocking the bayonet-like wind from high in the sky.
The giant eagle flew extremely smoothly, without any bumps on its back.
Including the two high-level qi-training monks from the Wang family, there were nearly twenty people sitting on the back of the eagle.
"Friend Lu Dao, I didn't expect to meet you here."
A monk with a simple and honest face slowly moved to Lu Xuan's side.
"How friendly." Lu Xuan said with a smile.
The monk's name is He Ping, a spiritual planter. Lu Xuan once met him in Baicao Hall. It is said that he is related to the foundation-building alchemist and manages a medicine garden for Baicao Hall.
Among the monks who went to the secret realm to help the Wang family deal with the spiritual planting this time, there were a total of fifteen spiritual planting masters, and three of them, including Lu Xuan, were closely related to Baicao Hall.
Lu Xuan made some observations and found that most of the fifteen spiritual plant masters were at the mid-level of Qi training, and only one old man had high-level Qi training.
At least that's the case on the surface.
"I just saw you observing others. I guess Fellow Daoist Lu may not be familiar with the spiritual planters present. Would you like me to give you a brief introduction?"
He Ping said with a smile.
"Then I'll trouble you, Fellow Daoist He." Lu Xuan was just what he wanted.
"These ten people all have good skills in planting spiritual plants, so they were invited by the Wang family."
"The old man who is leading the high-level Qi training belongs to the Wang family."
He Ping introduced them one by one. Indeed, as Wang Ruhai said before, most of the more than ten spiritual plant masters had extraordinary origins, and Lu Xuan felt a little relieved.
"Fellow Daoist He, can you tell me about the secret realm?" Lu Xuan asked.
"Fellow Taoist, haven't you ever entered the secret realm?" He Ping asked with a strange tone in his eyes.
"To be honest, there really isn't."
Lu Xuan said frankly.
"Because my cultivation level is ordinary, I am not good at fighting, and I am greedy for life and afraid of death, so I gave up the idea of entering the secret realm to explore opportunities and devoted myself to cultivating spiritual plants."
"Fellow Daoist Lu must have given up these things so that he could have cultivation skills that surpass others at such a young age."
He Ping straightened his expression.
"The source of the secret realm mainly comes from two parts. One is leftover from ancient times. This may bring great opportunities, but it also contains huge risks."
"There is also a kind of ingenuity, formed accidentally by chance, forming a world of its own. If it was born not long ago, it usually has a lot of cultivation resources, but there are also many evil beasts, and opportunities and risks coexist."
"What we are going to enter this time is the second one."
He Ping said eloquently.
Half a day later, the iron-feathered eagle landed slowly in a valley.
There was a monk from the Wang family waiting nearby. They saw the Iron Feathered Eagle folding its wings and walking over with a large piece of monster meat.
"This is the edge of the secret realm. Next, fellow Taoist Li Jianfeng and I will take you to the destination."
The elegant scholar Wang Ruhai said with a smile.
Lu Xuan looked around curiously. There were high mountains and towering trees. His spiritual sense could be felt to be obscured by some unknown spiritual power.
The valley here is the stronghold of the Wang family. If other monks want to enter the secret realm, they must find another way to enter.
At Wang Ruhai's signal, a mid-level qi-training monk came out and used a magic mirror to open the restriction outside the secret realm. Spiritual energy surged, and a small door that could allow two people to pass appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Xuan and other spiritual planters followed the Wang family and filed in.
In a daze, Lu Xuan came to a strange space. He saw a deserted space, with a few weird-shaped plants growing on the black and red soil, and the sky was dark and gloomy.
"This is the outskirts of the secret realm. Let's speed up and go directly to the destination."
Li Jianfeng, who had been silent all this time, said in a deep voice, his figure shooting into the distance like an arrow from a string.
More than a dozen spiritual planters were following closely behind, either using their physical skills or activating their magic weapons.
Lu Xuan also attached two swift talismans to his legs, and he was in the middle of the crowd and at the back.
Along the way, the barren land gradually came to life. As he entered the secret realm deeper, Lu Xuan began to find traces of the monks.
But after seeing the large number of people on their side and the fact that they were led by high-level qi-training monks, the casual cultivators they met outside the secret realm were like frightened birds and left in a hurry.
More than half an hour later, Lu Xuan and his party arrived in front of a mountain with rugged rocks.
After circling around among the strange rocks, we finally arrived at our destination.
"This is it."
Wang Ruhai pointed to the mountainside and said.
On the mountainside, there are many strange black and red stones with inconspicuous dark red strange grass growing on them.
It is about two feet long and towers over the surface of the rock wall. It has a curved shape and an extremely thin top. It grows densely together, like a bunch of weird tentacles.
"Asparagus grass is a second-grade spiritual plant. It's just that the asparagus grass here has undergone some kind of mutation under the influence of the special environment of the secret realm. Many of the dark red long beards have a certain degree of aggression. They usually have nothing to do with normal asparagus grass.
Difference, but it will suddenly attack the monks during or after picking."
"The attack strength is not very strong, probably equivalent to that of a second- or third-level qi-training monk. However, because it is mixed in the picked asparagus grass, it often damages normal spiritual plants, which is very annoying."
"Furthermore, there are some weird components in normal Asparagus grass, which are integrated into the plant and difficult to detect and separate. As a result, it is difficult for second-grade spiritual plants to have corresponding value."
"Therefore, we need to rely on the spiritual plant masters and your experience and knowledge in cultivating spiritual plants to identify the mutated Asparagus grass, separate the things inside the normal Asparagus grass, and hand them over to us for picking."
"Here are one hundred spiritual stones. As part of the prepayment, after leaving the secret realm, there will be a large number of spiritual stones and elixirs to thank you."
"The spiritual planter who handles the most asparagus grass will receive generous additional rewards."
Wang Ruhai took out a large number of spiritual stones from the storage bag, divided them into fifteen small piles, and floated them in front of Lu Xuan and others.
"One hundred spiritual stones, the value is between the first-grade magic weapon and the second-grade magic weapon, which is pretty good."
Lu Xuan accepted the hundred spirit stones with a smile and put them into his storage bag.
"However, it's not worth putting myself in danger and just following other spiritual planters and fishing."
Lu Xuan thought secretly.
Several mid-level qi-training monks from the Wang family began to set up camp. Among the spiritual planters, some people had already walked to the dragon's beard grass, holding up shields and magic weapons, and carefully observing the dragon's whisker grass.
Several people gathered together and discussed in low voices how to identify normal Asparagus grass.
Lu Xuan followed these people, nodding in agreement from time to time, looking at the several spiritual planters who had penetrated deep into the territory of Asparagus Grass, and curled his lips.
"One hundred spirit stones, why are you trying so hard!"
